Christiane Paul Digital Art

In Christian Paul's writing on digital art I was very interested by all the artists there, but there were three in particular that really stood out.

-Carl Fudge and his piece Rhapsody. In looking at the image I would have never  guessed that it was a picture of anything, let alone of the cartoon character Sailor Moon. I have always enjoyed distorted images and trying to figure out what they are. This image was distorted beyond all recognizing and it made it very cool to look at.

-Daniel Canogar's piece called Horror Vacui and Digital Hyde 2. Both pieces are made up of what looks like many dismembered body parts all put into a collage. It says these two pieces of art are supposed to operate on fear and fascination, and they do just that. I have always had a bit of an interest for things that are dark and morbid, that is probably why I found these pieces interesting.

-Lilian Schwartz's piece Mona/Leo was also very interesting. At first glance, it did not look like anything more than a portrait, but when I got a full look at it, I saw it was two images put together and it just seemed very interesting. It was especially interesting on the fact that their faces are very symmetrical to each other.

  1. Thanks for sharing. It is interesting to find out which artists stand out to students and why. I also enjoy that Fudge's "Rhapsody" is abstracted beyond recognition.
